Release 9.1.22
+
+
+
Release Date
+ 2016-05-12
+
+
+ This release contains a variety of fixes from 9.1.21.
+ For information about new features in the 9.1 major release, see
+ .
+
+
+ The
PostgreSQL community will stop releasing updates+ for the 9.1.X release series in September 2016.
+ Users are encouraged to update to a newer release branch soon.
+
+
+
+
Migration to Version 9.1.22
+
+ A dump/restore is not required for those running 9.1.X.
+
+
+ However, if you are upgrading from a version earlier than 9.1.16,
+ see .

Changes
+
+
+
+
+ Clear the OpenSSL error queue before OpenSSL calls, rather than
+ assuming it's clear already; and make sure we leave it clear
+ afterwards (Peter Geoghegan, Dave Vitek, Peter Eisentraut)
+
+
+ This change prevents problems when there are multiple connections
+ using OpenSSL within a single process and not all the code involved
+ follows the same rules for when to clear the error queue.
+ Failures have been reported specifically when a client application
+ uses SSL connections in
libpq concurrently with+ SSL connections using the PHP, Python, or Ruby wrappers for OpenSSL.
+ It's possible for similar problems to arise within the server as well,
+ if an extension module establishes an outgoing SSL connection.
+
+
+
+
+ Fix failed to build any N-way joins
+ planner error with a full join enclosed in the right-hand side of a
+ left join (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+ Fix possible misbehavior of TH, th,
+ and Y,YYY format codes in to_timestamp()
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ These could advance off the end of the input string, causing subsequent
+ format codes to read garbage.
+
+
+
+
+ Fix dumping of rules and views in which the array
+ argument of a value operator
+ ANY (array) construct is a sub-SELECT
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+ Make
pg_regress use a startup timeout from the+ PGCTLTIMEOUT environment variable, if that's set (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ This is for consistency with a behavior recently added
+ to
pg_ctl; it eases automated testing on slow machines.+
+
+
+
+ Fix
pg_upgrade to correctly restore extension+ membership for operator families containing only one operator class
+ (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ In such a case, the operator family was restored into the new database,
+ but it was no longer marked as part of the extension. This had no
+ immediate ill effects, but would cause later
pg_dump+ runs to emit output that would cause (harmless) errors on restore.
+
+
+
+
+ Rename internal function strtoi()
+ to strtoint() to avoid conflict with a NetBSD library
+ function (Thomas Munro)
+
+
+
+
+ Fix reporting of errors from bind()
+ and listen() system calls on Windows (Tom Lane)
+
+
+
+
+ Reduce verbosity of compiler output when building with Microsoft Visual
+ Studio (Christian Ullrich)
+
+
+
+
+ Avoid possibly-unsafe use of Windows' FormatMessage()
+ function (Christian Ullrich)
+
+
+ Use the FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS flag where
+ appropriate. No live bug is known to exist here, but it seems like a
+ good idea to be careful.
+
+
+
+
+ Update time zone data files to
tzdata release 2016d+ for DST law changes in Russia and Venezuela. There are new zone
+ names Europe/Kirov and Asia/Tomsk to reflect
+ the fact that these regions now have different time zone histories from
+ adjacent regions.

+ Fix incorrect handling of equivalence-class tests in multilevel
+ nestloop plans (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ Given a three-or-more-way equivalence class of variables, such
+ as X.X = Y.Y = Z.Z, it was possible for the planner to omit
+ some of the tests needed to enforce that all the variables are actually
+ equal, leading to join rows being output that didn't satisfy

+ were seldom selected in practice, so that this bug has gone undetected

+
+
+
+ Back-port 9.4-era memory-barrier code changes into 9.2 and 9.3 (Tom Lane)
+
+
+ These changes were not originally needed in pre-9.4 branches, but we
+ recently back-patched a fix that expected the barrier code to work
+ properly. Only IA64 (when using icc), HPPA, and Alpha platforms are
+ affected.
+
